​Gospel: John 6:44-51
Optional Memorial of Saint Pius V, Pope
 
Jesus said to the crowds:
“No one can come to me unless the Father who sent me draw him,
   and I will raise him on the last day.
It is written in the prophets:
 
      They shall all be taught by God.
 
Everyone who listens to my Father and learns from him comes to me.
Not that anyone has seen the Father
   except the one who is from God;
   he has seen the Father.
Amen, amen, I say to you,
   whoever believes has eternal life.
I am the bread of life.
Your ancestors ate the manna in the desert, but they died;
   this is the bread that comes down from heaven
   so that one may eat it and not die.
I am the living bread that came down from heaven;
   whoever eats this bread will live forever;
   and the bread that I will give
   is my Flesh for the life of the world.”

Jesus said to the crowds,
   “I am the bread of life;
   whoever comes to me will never hunger,
   and whoever believes in me will never thirst.
But I told you that although you have seen me,
   you do not believe.
Everything that the Father gives me will come to me,
   and I will not reject anyone who comes to me,
   because I came down from heaven not to do my own will
   but the will of the one who sent me.
And this is the will of the one who sent me,
   that I should not lose anything of what he gave me,
   but that I should raise it on the last day.
For this is the will of my Father,
   that everyone who sees the Son and believes in him
   may have eternal life,
   and I shall raise him on the last day.”

The crowd said to Jesus:
“What sign can you do, that we may see and believe in you?
What can you do?
Our ancestors ate manna in the desert, as it is written:
 
   He gave them bread from heaven to eat.”
 
So Jesus said to them,
   “Amen, amen, I say to you,
   it was not Moses who gave the bread from heaven;
   my Father gives you the true bread from heaven.
For the bread of God is that which comes down from heaven
   and gives life to the world.”
 
So they said to Jesus,
   “Sir, give us this bread always.”
Jesus said to them, “I am the bread of life;
   whoever comes to me will never hunger,
   and whoever believes in me will never thirst.”

Preacher: Miguel Reyes

​Gospel: John 6:22-29
 
[After Jesus had fed the five thousand men, his disciples saw him walking on the sea.]
The next day, the crowd that remained across the sea
   saw that there had been only one boat there,
   and that Jesus had not gone along with his disciples in the boat,
   but only his disciples had left.
Other boats came from Tiberias
   near the place where they had eaten the bread
   when the Lord gave thanks.
When the crowd saw that neither Jesus nor his disciples were there,
   they themselves got into boats
   and came to Capernaum looking for Jesus.
And when they found him across the sea they said to him,
   “Rabbi, when did you get here?”
Jesus answered them and said,
   “Amen, amen, I say to you, you are looking for me
   not because you saw signs
   but because you ate the loaves and were filled.
Do not work for food that perishes
   but for the food that endures for eternal life,
   which the Son of Man will give you.
For on him the Father, God, has set his seal.”
So they said to him,
   “What can we do to accomplish the works of God?”
Jesus answered and said to them,
   “This is the work of God, that you believe in the one he sent.”

​Gospel: Mark 16:15-20
 
Jesus appeared to the Eleven and said to them:
“Go into the whole world
   and proclaim the gospel to every creature.
Whoever believes and is baptized will be saved;
   whoever does not believe will be condemned.
These signs will accompany those who believe:
   in my name they will drive out demons,
   they will speak new languages.
They will pick up serpents with their hands,
   and if they drink any deadly thing, it will not harm them.
They will lay hands on the sick, and they will recover.”
 
Then the Lord Jesus, after he spoke to them,
   was taken up into heaven
   and took his seat at the right hand of God.
But they went forth and preached everywhere,
   while the Lord worked with them
   and confirmed the word through accompanying signs.

Preacher: Regina Pena

​Gospel: John 6:1-15
 
Jesus went across the Sea of Galilee.
A large crowd followed him,
   because they saw the signs he was performing on the sick.
Jesus went up on the mountain,
   and there he sat down with his disciples.
The Jewish feast of Passover was near.
When Jesus raised his eyes and saw that a large crowd was coming to him,
   he said to Philip, “Where can we buy enough food for them to eat?”
He said this to test him,
   because he himself knew what he was going to do.
Philip answered him,
   “Two hundred days’ wages worth of food would not be enough
   for each of them to have a little.”
One of his disciples,
Andrew, the brother of Simon Peter, said to him,
“There is a boy here who has five barley loaves and two fish;
   but what good are these for so many?”
Jesus said, “Have the people recline.”
Now there was a great deal of grass in that place.
So the men reclined, about five thousand in number.
Then Jesus took the loaves, gave thanks,
   and distributed them to those who were reclining,
   and also as much of the fish as they wanted.
When they had had their fill, he said to his disciples,
   “Gather the fragments left over,
   so that nothing will be wasted.”
So they collected them,
   and filled twelve wicker baskets with fragments
   from the five barley loaves that had been more than they could eat.
When the people saw the sign he had done, they said,
“This is truly the Prophet, the one who is to come into the world.”
Since Jesus knew that they were going to come and carry him off
   to make him king,
   he withdrew again to the mountain alone.

​Gospel: John 3:31-36
 
The one who comes from above is above all.
The one who is of the earth is earthly and speaks of earthly things.
But the one who comes from heaven is above all.
He testifies to what he has seen and heard,
   but no one accepts his testimony.
Whoever does accept his testimony certifies that God is trustworthy.
For the one whom God sent speaks the words of God.
He does not ration his gift of the Spirit.
The Father loves the Son and has given everything over to him.
Whoever believes in the Son has eternal life,
   but whoever disobeys the Son will not see life,
   but the wrath of God remains upon him.

Preacher: Andrea Minnah

​Gospel: John 3:16-21
 
God so loved the world that he gave his only-begotten Son,
   so that everyone who believes in him might not perish
   but might have eternal life.
For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world,
   but that the world might be saved through him.
Whoever believes in him will not be condemned,
   but whoever does not believe has already been condemned,
   because he has not believed in the name of the only-begotten Son of God.
And this is the verdict,
   that the light came into the world,
   but people preferred darkness to light,
   because their works were evil.
For everyone who does wicked things hates the light
   and does not come toward the light,
   so that his works might not be exposed.
But whoever lives the truth comes to the light,
   so that his works may be clearly seen as done in God.

​Gospel: John 3:7b-15
 
Jesus said to Nicodemus:
“‘You must be born from above.’
The wind blows where it wills, and you can hear the sound it makes,
   but you do not know where it comes from or where it goes;
   so it is with everyone who is born of the Spirit.”
Nicodemus answered and said to him,
   “How can this happen?”
Jesus answered and said to him,
   “You are the teacher of Israel and you do not understand this?
Amen, amen, I say to you,
   we speak of what we know and we testify to what we have seen,
   but you people do not accept our testimony.
If I tell you about earthly things and you do not believe,
   how will you believe if I tell you about heavenly things?
No one has gone up to heaven
    except the one who has come down from heaven, the Son of Man.
And just as Moses lifted up the serpent in the desert,
   so must the Son of Man be lifted up,
   so that everyone who believes in him may have eternal life.”

Preacher: Adriana Haro

​Gospel: John 3:1-8
 
There was a Pharisee named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews.
He came to Jesus at night and said to him,
   “Rabbi, we know that you are a teacher who has come from God,
   for no one can do these signs that you are doing
   unless God is with him.”
Jesus answered and said to him,
   “Amen, amen, I say to you,
   unless one is born from above, he cannot see the Kingdom of God.”
Nicodemus said to him,
   “How can a man once grown old be born again?
Surely he cannot reenter his mother’s womb and be born again, can he?”
Jesus answered,
   “Amen, amen, I say to you,
   unless one is born of water and Spirit
   he cannot enter the Kingdom of God.
What is born of flesh is flesh
   and what is born of spirit is spirit.
Do not be amazed that I told you,
   ‘You must be born from above.’
The wind blows where it wills,
   and you can hear the sound it makes,
   but you do not know where it comes from or where it goes;
   so it is with everyone who is born of the Spirit.”
